Heard on Easter Sunday...

In Unity, we understand that the resurrection story invites us to roll away our own stones of limitation, to step out of the tombs of our narrow thinking, and to recognize the Christ presence that has been alive within us all along.

On that transformative morning when Mary Magdalene approached the empty tomb, she discovered something far more profound than absence – she encountered presence. The resurrection story is a metaphor for the eternal truth that the Christ light never dies, but rather transforms and awakens within each of us.

Ernest Holmes, the beloved founder of Science of Mind, reminded us that "There is a Power for good in the universe greater than you are, and you [ought to] use it." This Power, this divine presence, is the same Christ consciousness that Jesus demonstrated in its fullness –as an awakened potential within all of humanity. When we truly see each other, we're not just witnessing the physical form, but recognizing the Diving spark that animates every soul – God with skin on .

We are called to resurrect our awareness of this truth: that the same Power that lifted Jesus from the tomb stirs within each heart. When we look into each other's eyes, we're not just seeing a friend or stranger – we are witnessing the living Christ, expressing uniquely through each precious soul.
